Has anyone got any original ideas for fancy dress themes for xmas fund-raising?

You could take a leaf out of Cherie Blair's book, she's just discovered 'the Emperor's New Clothes'. Very topical and in tune with our New Labour masters/mistresses (/stops rant) :evil:

On a more serious note, aren't most band uniforms fancy-dress enough for the non-banding public? Otherwise, dressing as turkeys sounds good and play "Good King Turkeys-last" (after soup, prawn cocktail and a very light fish dish, but no Christmas pud to follow obviously) and "God Rest You, Merry Turkeymen" (what wage-rich turkey-pluckers do on the 25th December). :oops:

There was a suggestion of going as transvestites and cross dressing but it was decided to leave until we go to Rocky Horror Show next May.

How about having a United Nations night, everyone choosing a different country to dress as, that's national dress not the actual country!!!! Or Pokemon, that would get the kids interested, :)

You must be able to do better than this "bunch of toons":
